HIS HOLINESS MEETS WITH THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ETHIOPIAN PATRIARCH

His Holiness Aram I received a delegation from the Ethiopian Orthodox Church
on May 5. The delegation included two bishops representing the spiritual
leader of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Abouna Paolos, as well as
the spiritual leader of the Ethiopian Community of Lebanon and the
Ambassador of Ethiopia in Lebanon.

The delegation conveyed the Ethiopian Patriarch’s greetings to His Holiness.
The two sides talked about the construction works of an Ethiopian church in
Lebanon.

The friendly relations between the Ethiopian Church and the Catholicosate of
Cilicia had led the two spiritual leaders to plan constructing an Ethiopian
church for meeting the spiritual needs of the growing Ethiopian community of
Lebanon. The church will be built on a land belonging to the Catholicosate
of Cilicia.

The close ties between the Catholicosate and the Church had been further
deepened during an official visit by Patriarch Paolos to Antelias in 2003,
when he had requested His Holiness to look after the Ethiopian community of
Lebanon.
